...hand can modify protocols based on the environment and have a very high degree of flexibility. They can also use unconventional methods to obtain results. * Enthusiasm to work: All said and done, in the end for any rural venture to be successful, what is required is a very high degree of enthusiasm, and an urge to excel. Social work is usually characterized by long working hours, unclear goals, sensitivity towards culture, commitment to the goals. Most private ventures enter this field out of passion and hence have this in plenty. Government officials may or may not be passionate about this project, but have to work on it. This clearly translates into the results. * Need for micro-level approach: Most rural ventures are extremely people oriented and need a lot of work to be done on a micro level and at a small scale. To be able to reach such a small demographic is usually...

...Karides, Florida Atlantic University An economic leader in the Caribbean, the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago has incorporated micro-business development as one of its main strategies to alleviate poverty and unemployment and to spawn economic growth since the late 1980s (ILO 1991, 1998, Ministry of Finance 1996). Although the discovery of natural gas in the early nineties catapulted Trinidad’s economic growth rate to four percent per annum, unemployment and poverty continue to affect a large portion of the population. The majority of the population has not benefited from Trinidad’s economic growth. Thus, the government has attempted to create “a nation of entrepreneurs” in order to relieve some of the inequality that defines the society (Ministry of Trade and Industry 1997). Trinidad’s expansion of micro-enterprise programs reflects an international trend. Endorsed by non-governmental organizations, private financial institutions, international development agencies, including the World Bank, many scholars and development practitioners also view microenterprise assistance as a panacea for Third World poverty (Johnson and Kidder, 1999; Mosley and Hulme, 1998; Dignard and Havet, 1995; Grosh and Somolekae, 1996; Rakowski, 1994). Micro-enterprise development programs generally consist of training in business skills or providing small loans or credit to micro-entrepreneurs (Dignard and Havet, 1995; International Labour Organization, 1995; Rakowski, 1994). These programs typically target...

...I was sitting in a Portland Oregon hotel when four words forever changed my business. The keynote speaker at the meeting, a vice president of channel had just finished a surprisingly lack-luster presentation and opened up for questions. An associate from New York City immediately stood and asked, “Do you consider us competition or partners?” The VP answered without skipping a beat, “You are Apple’s competition.” I guess there shouldn’t have been a gasp and rumble throughout the room, but 100+ Authorized Resellers and VARs suddenly realized that they faced an uphill battle. Many would close their doors in the months to come. As an Authorized reseller I bought our Apple branded products from first tier distributors such as Ingram Micro and Tech Data with only small price variances based on the size of the Purchase Order. Smaller PO’s were often ignored or faced delays in shipping. A big reason for the gasp in the room was the increasing trend of Apple product scarcity for resellers. While Apple’s new retail stores had full shelves we had to fight over the leftovers. Often this meant we missed out on the initial surge of purchases made by early adopters. (Eventually Apple would release game-changing products like the iPhone and not allow Apple resellers to sell them.) When Apple opened their new store 5 minutes from one of mine I was forced to pivot or close my doors. We changed from being an Apple Reseller who sold some accessories to more of a system integrator and service...

...Ribbons and Bows INTRODUCTION Carmen Diaz, with a ten thousand dollar loan from two of her cousins, and one thousand dollars that she invested in equity, was able to open a specialty store called Ribbons an’ Bows, Inc, which was located in Coconut Grove, Miami, Florida. Four months after opening the business, Carmen’s relatives requested a financial report, which was part of the original business arrangement. Within a short time, Carmen had expanded the business, purchased small equipment, paid wages to a part-time employee, and by all outward indicators, had been running a flourishing business. As Carmen gathered the necessary information to prepare financial statements, she started to scrutinize the transactions and was somewhat perplexed. Carmen realized that numbers were not adding up as she had anticipated. Additionally, it became questionable whether the business was operating successfully, at least when accounting principles were appropriately applied. Statement of the Problem It was fortuitous for Carmen Diaz to have family who were supportive of her small business endeavor, thereby providing start-up funds and legal advice. Carmen’s endeavor can be recognized as a “microbusiness” operation; “microcredit”, microenterprise” and “microfinance” are terms that have been associated with microbusinesses (Datar, 2009). Clearly, Carmen would have benefitted from some professional entrepreneurial guidance that is widely available at no cost in the United States...

...Running head: SUN MICROSYSTEMS CASE STUDY PROJECT SUN Microsystems Case Study Project Jeffery M. Anderson, 105225 BBA 3391-06B, Information Systems Cost Analysis Brief History of SUN Technology and Text Summery Sun Microsystems was born after Stanford University, Palo Alto graduate student Andy Betchtolsheim, conceived a UNIX based workstation he deemed the “68000 Unix System” for a networking project named Stanford University Network. Early February 1982 colleagues Vinod Khosla, Scott McNealy, and Bill Joy instituted the company SUN Microsystems resulting from the initials of Stanford University Network. (Wikipedia, 2006) Sun made its mark in the workstation market as the leader in the desktop performance competition by introducing the SPARCstation 10 system, the world’s first multiprocessing desktop computer in 1992. That same year they shipped more multiprocessing UNIX servers than any other vendor in their entire history of operation. Other major products contributed by Sun include the Solaris Operating System, Sparc Microprocessor, instant networking with Jini technology; which enables all kinds of devices to connect to the network—plug and play, and of course the famous Java technology. SUN Microsystems enjoyed 1.3 billion in revenues 1996 with server sales and topping out at 16 billion in quarterly sales in 1998 with the technology frenzied internet boom (Afuah & Tucci, 2003, p. 393).

...manufacturers who utilize Intel’s components, end-user consumers (which includes individuals, large and small businesses, and service providers), and “other manufacturers, including makers of a wide range of industrial and communications equipment.” Intel has capitalized on its ability to lead the semiconductor industry by continuous innovation. Gordon Moore, one of Intel’s founders, introduced a principle that continues to guide Intel which states that “the number of transistors on a chip roughly doubles every two years.” In keeping with Moore’s Law, Intel’s key to success in the semiconductor industry has been constant innovation. Such a strategy has allowed Intel to remain a leader among competitors such as Texas Instruments, Advanced Micro Devices, International Business Machines, and Freescale Semiconductor, among others. The semiconductor industry is extremely competitive, but Intel seems to have the most sure-footing of all the major competitors. By offering a diverse product lineup that calls upon nearly fifty years of expertise and continuous innovation, Intel has become and will continue to be a leader in its field. No competitor has come close to replicating the competitive advantages possessed by Intel Corporation. Analyze the Company Mission According...

...Focus on Process to Reduce Your Recruiting Costs In good times, trimming operational costs is an ongoing goal. In tough times, it’s a necessity. In both good times and bad, however, recruiting occurs. Growth increases headcount in good times, and opportunistic or replacement hiring occurs in slow business cycles. By employing creative recruiting strategies in tandem with the latest technology developments, you can reduce recruiting costs while driving exceptional business results. Creative recruiting strategies in tandem with the latest technology provide the opportunity to reduce recruiting costs while powering exceptional business results. Target Direct Cost Savings Total recruiting process expenses are the sum of external costs plus internal labor costs. Most organizations can reduce recruiting expenses with direct cost savings. While additional savings on indirect costs can be realized from process improvement and efficiency gains, there are direct cost savings and benefits readily available in three broad areas: sourcing, assessments, and green recruiting. Sourcing: Reduce Agency Costs Agency search firm fees can amount to 35 percent of a new employee’s annual base salary. Typically taken from the hiring department budget, these fees may not be visible to HR. By relying on internal mobility programs, referrals, candidate pipelines, and corporate career Websites, organizations can reduce or eliminate this agency spend. And when you do have to pay third-party agency...

...Advanced Micro Devices (AMD): Strategic Plan for Managing Technological Innovation TM 583 – Section C Professor Edmead 8/21/10 Section 1 – Strategy TCO F – Given an organizational and industry context, identify and suggest a deployment strategy that will facilitate the success of a technologically-driven organization. Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), founded 1968, in Sunnyvale, California is a producer of Central Processing Units (CPUs), the main computing component in modern computers. AMD’s primary capability is the design and engineering of consumer, workstation, and server CPUs. Initially, AMD competed with Intel by reverse-engineering the original 8080 processors and then creating their own x386 variant, but a lack of funding stymied sustained, long-term innovation (Valich 2008). In many ways, this scenario is quite indicative of the role AMD has played throughout its history: the underdog. They leveraged their core competencies of microprocessor engineering by assimilating the designs and processes of competitors and then building upon that knowledge to create profitable (usually) products and services. However, AMD has experienced PR missteps (like the Phenom I TLB bug debacle on an already late-to-market product) from which they have struggled to recover. In order to re-gain the confidence of partners, suppliers, and consumers, AMD must prove, once again, that it’s not the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog. 2 Looking toward...
